The John Lewis stainless steel heat diffuser evenly distributes hob heat to prevent burning or boiling over. Place it directly on electric or gas hobs for gentle simmering. This 21.5cm kitchen tool also stabilises pans and allows larger cookware on smaller rings.
Having a tricky time getting the hob exactly at the right temperature? Pans boil over too quickly or sauces burn instead of simmering slowly? Saving the day - and your meal - a heat diffuser helps to regulate and distribute the heat from the hob to the pan.
Place directly onto the hob and as the diffuser warms up, it reduces the direct heat applied to the pan base and instead spreads it evenly. Very handy if even the lowest setting of your hob is too hot to handle.
Additionally, the diffuser provides a stable base for the pan, and you can also put a larger pan onto a smaller hob while keeping the heat evenly spread.
This stainless steel diffuser is ideal for electric hobs and also for low-and-slow cooking on gas hobs.
